"To appreciate the noble is a gain..." - Quote by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

“Love and desire are the spirit's wings to great deeds.”

“Our hands we open of our own free will, and the good flies, which we can never recall.”

“Courage is the commitment to begin without any guarantee of success.”

“It's great at this stage in my life to still be in the running, that people appreciate you.”

“Deficiency motivation doesn't work. It will lead to a life-long pursuit of try to fix me. Learn to appreciate what you have and where and who you are.”

“In order to be happy we must first possess inner contentment; and inner contentment doesn't come from having all we want; but rather from wanting and appreciating being grateful for all we have.”

“The artificial noble shrinks into a dwarf before the noble of nature; and in the few instances (for there are some in all countries) in whom nature, as by a miracle, has survived in aristocracy, those men despise it.”

“It is not rebellion itself which is noble but the demands it makes upon us.”

“To generous souls every task is noble.”
